A good friend, a leading personality of the New Energy Movement,
the Canadian writer, Jeane Manning has visited the labs of Defkalion Green
Technologies at Vancouver and has
published this fine frontline report.

I am a long time admirer of Jeane’s writings and thinking and
now again her unique talent to see the essence, the core of the problem,
her ability to discover, reveal newness and progress made me
enthusiastic-bravissimo Jeane!

This NEW has now a name; it is LENR+, in defkalionese HENI.

It is the creation of Yiannis Hadjichristos and his scientific
associate(s) and of our bright colleague and friend Axil. The DGT team made
this new thinking possible, Jeane is telling us what LENR+ signifies.

I take this opportunity to show you the bare bone form of
LENR+ asking you, my faithful readers to contribute by putting

Scientific-conceptual flesh on this skeleton. I will
discourage those who perhaps want to break some of these bones- they are very
tough and resistant. PLEASE contribute positively and creatively to his
Synthesis!

LENR+ Manifesto and Plan. (sketch)

1. Situation:
The LENR field has PROBLEMS

2. Cause: It appeared too EARLY

3. Difficulty: Extreme COMPLEXITY

4. Solution: TECHNOLOGY first!

- No PURE SCIENCE alone!

- SCIENTIFIC METHOD not applicable.

- HYBRID METHOD necessary

5. No INNER SOLUTION found

- Usual SYSTEMS
hopeless

- To destroy
MYTHS, MEMES!

- Radical PARADIGM
shift.

6 OUTER SOLUTIONS emerging: LENR+

7 Task: to differentiate LENR/LENR+!

- LENR is discovery, LENR+ is invention,

- LENR and LENR+ have different mechanisms;

- LENR+ based on enhanced excess heat,

- LENR+ dynamic system of multi-stage processes;

- LENR+ is based on nuclear interactions, not reactions,

- LENR+ needs a productive meta-theory

8. Task: define, describe LENR+ mechanism;

to make hydrogen reactive and metal receptive

Polaritons, Nanoplasmonics, Resonances -àBEC,
sequences…

Trans-theory in statu-nascendi

9. TaskLENR+ R&D by HOLISTIC approach

- optimization
performances/control, scale up, diversification

10. Industrial implementation
of LENR+ generators

In these papers you can see how LENR+ was built. The work
just has started

The recently published Report re. Rossi’s Hot Cat has
caused a battle of such immiscible ideas – more precisely memes. It was written
a lot about it and all I want is to answer the fundamental questions: What
war was this? Who were the combatants? How will be this war finished?

Otherwise the Big Four Rossi killers –
Joshua Cude, Steven Krivit, Gary Wright and Mary Yugo have reacted as this was
expected from them. (Mary was the fastest, congrats!) Many other new kids on
the block have reacted similarly. An old rule: if you have no arguments, no
facts you manufacture them and add them to the reality. I think they have read
my analysis saying my 20 problem solving rules were able to solve >99% of
the real problems but less than 80% of the imaginary ones.

Rule 17
says it clearly: “NOTalways the existent, real
problems, but many times the fictive, imaginary ones are the most difficult to
be solved.”

Using
this weapon is easy- you add imaginary problems to the real ones regarding the
Report and then claim that those new problems are insoluble- that means the
report is flawed. By reading a few ten thousands of comments you could easily
earn a diploma in distorted logic. The confusion is total and even good and
honest people will write self-contradictory open end papers like this.http://www.forbes.com/sites/markgibbs/2013/05/30/rossis-a-fraud-no-hes-not-yes-he-is-no-he-isnt/

The Hundred Years War had duration of 116 years (1337-1453);
the Cold Fusion War will be known as the Twenty Five Years LENR War and will
last roughly 25 years. That means that the coming months will bring decisive
events on more fronts.

Just watch the news and especially this blog, Ego Out.

But the battle of Ferrara
is not simply a continuation of the war between the LENR believers and the Cold
Fusion skeptics. No, actually it was a battle between LENR+ Rossi style and

his personal enemies (Rossi is very effective in creating
enmity) The rest is just context.

The classic LENR people and their traditional adversaries
have mixed in naturally but it was not more their battle. It was a LENR+ battle
on an other frontline...

\The relationship between LENR (Pd based, smart static
nanostructures, etc.- weak, sporadic heat effect) and LENR+- much enhanced
excess heat) is approximately similar to that of a caterpillar and butterfly.
LENR to LENR+ is a radical metamorphosis. To speak about fixed active sites/NAE
and dynamic active sites/NAE is the core of the difference but still a
simplification.

Again about mixing: LENR and LENR+ systems have to be
considered separately, they represent different levels, stages and directions
of development. We have to treat them separately; do not mix cherries and
pumpkins. (idiotic metaphor, take it only dimensionally)

The final battles will take place very probably between a
LENR+ technology smarter than Rossi’s and the last place will be the market.

Some of enemies of the coming LENR+ technology are so
obsessed with their unbelief that they will look with suspicion even to their
own new LENR+ based central heater.

The decisive technical Armageddons will come soon and the
enemies of progress will learn that they are no more confronting LENR a poor myriapode with a lot of Achilles heels, but
LENR+ the invincible technology.

The Report of the Italian and Swedish professors that
demonstrates the generation of massive excess heat and an amazingly high energy
density is a serious very professional work.

It is obviously not perfect; not a capodopera but this does
not disturb me a bit. Its conclusions are unassailable and, I well remember
that re-reading even my most successful research reports two weeks later, I
usually have found lots of issues that could be done much better. Three months
later, many times we were able to find a better way.

The Report has not found its way to the Big Press – this is
only its 3rd day of public existence. However it has already
generated an epidemics that (because I am chasing popularity) I will call of
toxic naivety and arrogant, increasingly desperate ill-will. Those
detractors who have decent IQ’s and at least some

traces of EQ start understanding that soon they will be
forced to swallow their words and these will taste very bitter. Take this as my
friendly prediction.

The epidemic is lead by a sub-species of Homo sapiens- those
human beings who are fatally allergic to any question that needs answers
beyond the most primitive straight YES or NO.

See please what I wrote about the MU answers- in Robert
Pirsig’s interpretation here:

The test of a first-rate intelligence is the
ability to hold two opposing ideas in mind at the same time and still retain
the ability to function. ((F Scott Fitzgerald)

Unfortunately the poor souls think those opposing ideas can
and have to be mixed, even combined. That is a pathological anti-logical mental
operation. The latest example:

The core idiocy in the attacks.

The attacks try to demonstrate simultaneously that;

a) Andrea Rossi is a scammer, swindler, fraud & 9
synonyms

b) The E-cat is unable to produce any excess heat,
everything was and is just faked, false, non-existent heat.

I will use an analogy, an artistic one. As told I doubt the
explanatory and the predictive value of the most usual technological analogies
used for cold fusion, for ages simply because airplanes and transistors have
appeared when their time

was there, theory and technical conditions were already
ready. Cold Fusion came in hurry, too early- the advent of LENR+ will show you
how and why this happened.

Let’s admit Andrea Rossi is a scammer- and let’s find a
historical analog personality for him. Please look this video with attention
and read the text:

Yes, it is the famous womanizer Don Juan (or Don Giovanni in
Mozart’s opera). He immediately characterized by one of his victims, Donna
Elvira (interpreted here by the adorable Dame Kiri Te Kanawa) tells it directly:
“monster, villain, liar!” Don Juan escapes coward style and his servant,
Leporello – in the famous Catalog aria explains to the poor girl that she is
not the first or the single victim, describing the extent of his master’s
sexual, marital scam so:

My dear lady, this is a listOf the beauties my master has loved,A list which I have compiled.Observe, read along with me.In Italy,
six hundred and forty;In Germany,
two hundred and thirty-one;A hundred in France; in
Turkey,
ninety-one;

But in Spain already
one thousand and three.

What do you think, boys, really not bad, centuries before
Viagra was invented!

Much sex, but also a lot of money- the guy was a
super-scammer indeed. He is eventually punished but accepts his fate with
dignity, has strong principles. Don’t mourn him, better read what G.B. Shaw has
written about Don Juan.

But let’s continue with the analogy, it is an axiom of the denigrators
that Rossi’s E-Cat – is unable to deliver any excess heat, zero excess hear, zero
and its 23 synonyms!

This means nothing more and nothing less that Don Juan is
impotent! You don’t need imagination at all to see that in this case Leporello’s
list would be, very short- no list at all.

(Note ‘impotent Don Juan’ is my independent but not
original invention for this occasion, but see please the autobiography of Paul
Feyerabend the philosopher who has told some remarkable things about the
Scientific Method – but this is an other problem.)

Do you really think the impossible is possible? And, can you
make a list of Rossi’s E-cat bound victims?

An other standard core naivety is the ideally independent,
test:

It means that just for pleasing some aggressive, curious
negative kibitzes, Rossi will borrow one of his generators to a group of
unknown well known (in the profession) experts and lets them to do all kind of
tests they wish. Rossi has made a discovery; the relationship between a creator
and his creation is a very complex issue. However Rossi has the right to
protect his intellectual property and to establish his own risk management. A
wise friend has told:
Sometimes unpleasant people win the lottery. I have not met Rossi but people who
know him say he has charm and can be very nice, just it is difficult to make
business with him. Do you think he has paranormal abilities and has mesmerized
a lot of people starting with Focardi and Stremmenos and the DGT people? No,
surely not: he has excess heat in the E-cats and is still learning how to
master excess heat management. He knows how advanced he is in his studies.

This was the beautiful part of the story. The ugly part is that the
quasi-desperate black-and white naïve donjuanologists are attacking and
insulting viciously and cowardly the Professors who have destroyed the myth of those
wise-guys’ inerrancy. No fair play.

The publication process seemed to be slow, but peer
reviewing never was fast. It is still not clear where will be this report
published in printed form, but after reading it, this seems not very relevant
to me.

The essence of this report is this: Rossi obtains
enhanced excess heat in his generator(s)

A certainty – you can see in my writings that I have stated
this long ago. Rossi is on the way, long and with many obstacles from this
first step which is his discovery to an energy source. Rossi being very
secretive we cannot know if he has solved the problems of control as start-up,
adjustment of heat level and instant shut-down etc, but we wish him the best.

I have paid a high human cost for my conviction that Rossi
has demonstrated beyond any doubt intense excess heat even in his series of
seriously “improved” dozen experiments from 2011-

I have lost the friendship of two individuals I have admired
still then but now they became intolerant to contrary opinions. A third friend
got angry with me both for this and for my support for Defkalion- who has the
most creative thinking in LENR+, IMHO.

Defkalion has focused its initial R&D efforts on
control, first of all

on start-up, a critical stage for LENR+.

The two experiments of the Professors lead to good levels of
excess heat and to decent values of COP, 5.6 and 2.6 and this need to increased
(3.0 is the minimum technological value taking in account that a unit of
electric energy is 3 times more expensive than the same unit of thermal energy).

The difference between Excess Heat and a genuine Energy
Source will be made obvious using the example of the thermo-radiant stones that
have been used for heating the homes in the Arctic zones with active volcanoes.
Those “heitt steinn” had to be mined, cut and have created some problems of
logistics and of adjustment. Therefore as soon technical progress has arrived
to those cold zones, standard gas, oil electric and other heaters were used
replacing the hot stones.

Rossi’s zoology inspired approaches to viable energy sources
are suggesting that he uses now a mouse for better start-up and control and
goes on two different ways for scale-up: multi-cat and E-Tiger

The report is a victory for LENR+ and perhaps it can prepare
the press and the open-minded public opinion for even greater victories that
will come this year.

I wrote this short poem of optimist desperation (we will succeed
to resurrect as those birds!) in 1988 when we hoped that the communist
dictatorship will end somehow, but we had no idea how it will happen. A year
later I knew it, an untitled

poem but actually “Ceausescu” said:

On my island made of wax,

In the midst of a
hot Ocean,

I stay and wait…”

He has not waited much, the island disappeared and Ceausescu
has learned fast about the risks of the profession of dictator. We resurrected,
more or less.

However I will speak now about the brave Phoenix Birds, a
wonderful symbol of continuity, even with the high price of an obviously
painful but well organized series of resurrections.

In my previous editorial “The Best Recipe for Disaster” I
have described how Cold Fusion has abandoned – forced by the hostile outer and
inner circumstances, in the frame of its original sin- bad reproducibility-its
essential aim: Energy. But I knew this idea has to be continued. And now it
will be about continuity, because the long history of cold fusion-LENR was
continuously uglified by discontinuities in the experimental work , by sad
cases of projectus interruptus. A success is not a success still it does not
follow the normal cycle of growing up, developing, improving, slowly and
peacefully, get old and eventually being replaced y something even better and
so on. The successes in LENR were

very short-lived

As it usually happen, the Spirit of Internet offered his
generous help. First it has sent me the newsletter of Psychotactics with a
paper entitled: “The 6 Most Important Lessons In Marketing”

What is true for marketing and these six lessons are as
follows: 1) Follow up; 2) Follow
up; 3) Follow up; 4) Follow up;
5) Follow up; 6) Follow up.- is true for many positive human activities-
for example science and technology-too. If you don’t follow up, you have
achieved nothing. Your work will remain a footnote in the history of the field.

Then at the LENR forums two very long threads have reminded
us how variable but unpredictable and unmanageable the experimental results were
and how difficult it is to obtain passable results in the PdD systems despite
the accumulated huge

experimental data. How many hopes raising high and then
falling!

In a bit euphemistic, hardened form “jumping like a lion,
falling like a stone.” The standard culprit is lack of funding, but nobody
takes the risk to answer to an utopian question like: “suppose we have endless
funding; is there a guarantee that somebody will solve the problems of
reproducibility and scale up? Or, do you think that is possible?” If somebody
happens to be interested in my opinion that is: without removal of gas
molecules that compete with deuterium, decent levels (>99.9%) of
reproducibility will be never attained; and the original wet

system is unable to attain usable energy densities. Do not
say me please:”it is easy to make wise negativist predictions when you know you
will go and will get rid of any responsibility for your statements!”

But my special experience in mythical aviculture has taught
me a lot from the Phoenix birds, I
will come back and continue my activity. Just continue to watch this blog.

I repeat for the n-th time, lack of reproducibility MUST
have an explanation and even more, MUST have solutions- finding these is the
raison d’etre of research. And certainly, outsiders will never accept a process
that is not highly, safely, knowingly reproducible! Please allow me here to ask
two naïve rhetorical questions:

Is it a serious problem that serious problems are not taken
seriously?

Why loving inside constructive critics is ignored and
hateful attacks are answered in the minutest details, with quasi-infinite
repetition of old data?

The 1 = 0 Rule, explained

The OLTCHIMresearch labwasa fine place, we had to deliverresults and fast have worked under stress
and pressure- coming in great part from people who had no idea about research
and chemistry but having great power- it was a dictatorship, autocracy then.
The possibilities of information were limited but I succeeded to convince some
people that it is necessary; anyway we had a lot of Russian books and journals.
In critical cases as in `1974-5 when it was discovered that vinyl-chloride is a
dangerous carcinogen and the technology of PVC was revolutionized- we have
received everything we needed because it seemed to be a case of “solve it or
perish1” for this major polymer.

Some smart people in the great libraries of Romania
have started to translate the basic Western management literature and this has
stimulated our thinking and gave us an unlimited appetite to learn

And to discover such rules and principles and truths and we
have also tried to discover some good practices in research.

We had successes but some cases that first seemed to go
well, turned out to be complete failures, when taking everything in account and
developing a broader vision/understanding. We have introduced a precautionary
rule: one result is no result, one analysis is still no valid analysis, one
single test (good or bad) has to be temporarily ignored and repeated. You got
it this became the axiomatic 1 = 0 Rule. It was extended to some childishly
simple but useful ideas as: continuation is more important than start, it is
more important to re-think an idea than to discover it, first remove the weak
points and later developed the strong points, always take care first of the
risks, we have concocted a primitive form of SWOT. The opuses of Deming, Juran
and Crosby and our practice have taught us that constancy of quality is more
important than peak performances. We have embraced critical thinking and had series
of illuminations regarding scientific and technological

experts… but enough of vain nostalgia, let’s better to
continue to learn. Complementary to the 1 -0 rule is the high art to know when
a project has to be abandoned and the resources spent for better ones. It is
about the essential difference between effectiveness and efficiency- ask Peter
Drucker!

If we apply the 1 = 0 Rule to the long history of CF/LENR we
will suffer heavy losses. If a study, method idea gives good excellent or/and
promising results but it is discontinued, there are great chances that it has
no development potential or it has hidden inner weaknesses.

We can conclude against our wish that LENR despite being
more than certainly very real, has no bright future, it will be almost impossible
to improve the experimental situation so LENR is in crisis as long as we remain
in the frame of LENR (classic LENR)

It happens that my hyper-informed colleague, Axil, leader of
the New Wave thinking in our field has just found an elegant up-the-target
formulation of the perspective (extracted from his Vortex message): LENR reaction is weak,
transient, random, and intermittent. This ethereal nature of the LENR reaction
makes it useless. The LENR advocate must
come up with a plan to make the LENR reaction strong, permanent, consistent,
and controllable LENR+

This working strategy is clearly modeled after the Phoenix
birds- you have to destroy your old nature and resurrect with a new viable,
superior nature. Not an easy job, but the alternative is worse and it does not
exist. Perhaps you can imagine other

solutions but it is very possible that the following
quotation

is true in that case:

“Imagination is the one weapon
in the war against reality.”(Jules de Gaultier)

Peter

Supplement: a few inspiring quotes only for LENR+
apprentices and students

Actually these are more than quotations- they are partners
for your dialogues about the LENR/LENR+ problems: Real imaginary dialogues- it
will go well

Phoenix
birds

There was a silly damn bird called a phoenix back before
Christ, every few hundred years he built a pyre and burnt himself up. He must
have been the first cousin to Man. But every time he burnt himself up he sprang
out of the ashes, he got himself born all over again. And it looks like we're
doing the same thing, over and over, but we're got on damn thing the phoenix
never had. We know the damn silly thing we just did. We know all the damn silly
things we've done for a thousand years and as long as we know that and always
have it around where we can see it, someday we'll stop making the goddamn
funeral pyres and jumping in the middle of them. We pick up a few more people
that remember every generation.” (Ray
Bradbury)

Fawkes is a phoenix, Harry. Phoenixes burst into flame when
it is time for them to die and are reborn from the ashes.” (J.K. Rowling)

Rising in Triumph, just like the phoenix (Loretta Livingstone)

Only after disaster can we be resurrected.
(Chuck Palahniuk)

It is not more surprising to be born twice than once;
everything in nature is resurrection. (Voltaire)―Voltaire

Succeed quotes

In order to succeed, your desire for
success should be greater than your fear of failure. (Bill Cosby)

Both Mottos can be
interpreted as “fallible as we are, we still are much better with means than
with aims.”

You know that my blog is dedicated to problem solving (BTW I
am planning to set up a special new blog only for my 20 Problem Solving Rules)
therefore I am deeply interested in the sources of man-made problems. Step by
step, I have discovered an inexhaustible source of such problems, a very
effective recipe for failure. My satori has happened when I wrote an editorial
about bureaucracy.

“Somewhere a problem, a task, a purpose,
an aim or a problem appears. A solution is sought. An institution, a committee,
political party, group, team is created for working out and implementing the
solution and for creating new improved up-to-dated solutions. Then something
strange and evil happens- the institution etc. has a kind of amnesic shock and
“forgets” its own mission, does care less and less about the general interest
and focuses on its own group’s interest and on the people who support it.
Bureaucracy appears wit its corrupt and egotistical nasty ugliness.

However this process of degradation,
alienation is more general than the damned bureaucracy, in many places the aims
are cannibalizing the aims and take over their status and function.

I had an other illumination moment when I
read years ago that pharmaceutical industry spends more money for advertising
than for research I have read a lot about Big Pharma- the art of making
billions from milligrams and I have understood how it has lost its original
aim- to cure illnesses and make people healthy and has replaced it with maximum
profit obtainable from chronically ill people addicted to some, if possible)
expensive drugs. The aim of Big Pharma is many customers not healthy people. If
you are over 50 you will understand immediately what I want to say.

The most spectacular case of
means-replacing-aims is that of money- not more a means of buying and selling
but a kind of sacred aim, Moneytheism is the dominant religion, consumerism is
a social obligation that moves society, ads are ubiquitous. To be poor is the
most unpardonable sin.

It is now black humor or
outright idiocy to tell that the government has the aims to serve the people.
In practice, everywhere those who have won the power, democratically or not,
try to get rich by all means.

A few short (ened)
remarks:

a) The aims must be in consonance with the
means; good aims using evil means become evil.

The end may justify the means as long as there is something
that justifies the end.” (Leon Trotsky)

b) The aims are always less
clear, less stable, less up-to-dated and well defined and described, less
“real” than the means. Means are now, aims are in the future. In a sense, the
means tend to be more powerful than the aims and this is one of the reasons why
aims are easy prey for means so many times.

What really matters inlifeare not the goals we set, but the
roads we take to achieve them.(Peter
Bamm)

The Way is always more
than the Purpose. (Heimito von Doderer)

c) During my career in
research I have learned that if I want to create something more important and
lasting, it is better to focus on methods, principles, modes of thinking, more
on the processes than on products. Means – here too are more fertile than aims.

d) Collective
aims are much more vulnerable to the “means eat aims” syndrome than individual,
independent, original aims. The following quotation is, in part half- in part
1.5 relevant:

Brilliance is typically the act of an individual, but
incredible stupidity can usually be traced to an organization. (Jon Bentley)

If you belong to a group
having an aim identical with yours, consider it as your personal aim, it’s
safer and smarter...

The ‘aims replaced by means’
problem is present in my all favorite activity- research
too. The publications of the scientists
and researchers have the aim to inform peers, colleagues and the world about
their achievements, discoveries, their own contributions to the advancement of
science and technology. However, because there are exclusively quantitative
criteria used for the evaluation of the activity of the scientists,
publications – their number- becomes an aim per se. You have to write and
publish as many as possible books and papers. So you tend to divide your work
in “least publishable units” see e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_publishable_unit This problem
is more serious than believed by the outsiders, quality and newness are very
difficult to define and the very necessary

Scientometrics is under-used.

NOTE During spring-cleaning my blog, I have seen that I
have already published 95 papers re New Energy. Please do not accuse me of
salami publication; there are other reasons for being so over-productive, to
not say, boring. I have written about many events, new ideas and concepts, I am
a slow thinker, my own ideas are not easy to understand for me and are rarely
formulated in a convincing mode; Please also take in consideration that I was
swimming counter-stream. I have made a long journey in complexity, from
thinking that deep degassing and VERY smart nanotechnology and perfect
adjustment of a few critical parameters will solve the problem of commercial
heat energy generation to the New Wave LENR+ a techno-conspiracy of
organized matter multi-sequential and hyper dynamic systems to unite Metal and
Hydrogen in the proper way... More important is that the best people in the
field are generously helping me.

But let’s go back to aims and
means, Read this please:

To forget your aim is
the most common form of stupidity.

(Friedrich Nietzsche)

This is an exaggeration and in the same time, a
euphemism. Losing your aims, replaced by some means, or in other way, is the
best recipe for disaster. If this happens to you, there is no other solution
than to regain your initial aims and to aim to more. Otherwise your cause is
lost.

The lost aims of LENR.

Cold Fusion has appeared unexpectedly as a promise of
infinite energy clean energy, as a creative solution to the huge delays and
great troubles of Hot Fusion. Based on the natural simplicity in thinking
everybody has expected to get a hot fusion reaction that takes place at cold,
due probably to the enormous electro-chemical pressure on the surface of the palladium
cathode. Soon the initial naiveties have disappeared and instead of a golden
rush for more and more energy, the field had to fight desperately enough for
its very survival. The starting aim, Energy became fight for survival;
Enhancement was replaced fast with proving Existence. Prove that you really
exist! The field was under siege for
long years. Pragmatic focus became scientific focus. When it become obvious
that the intensity of the desired heat release cannot be increased the aim was
changed to very sensitive heat measurement and a glorious new chapter was added
to the fine art of calorimetry. Disproportionate efforts but heroic ones.
Milliwatts are less that watts, our bodies are sources of approximately
100Watts heat and we need much powerful sources than ourselves. Minute
quantities of energy generate no enthusiasm, no enthusiasm means no funds, no
funds signifies no creative ideas. Lack of creative ideas is the most
destructive situation possible for research.

Cold Fusion has aimed to be a commercial heat source but
was sentenced to remain a lab curiosity.
I don’t know who was the first to call CF anomalous, but he/she has made
a fatal error, the effect is new, unexpected even surprising (smart researchers
are surprised only by the absence of surprises. Anomalous is pejorative,
offensive. Do you want an anomalous oven or an anomalous car?

However many good people have discovered and are
convinced that the effect, LENR exists and continued to try to solve the
problem of improved processes. These people organizes meetings, the great ones
have arrived this year to No 19. However the main aim of these meetings seems
to be to create opportunities to many people, some of them young, to present new
variants of weak and sick and unreliable LENRs or is helping theorists to apply
their one-step, simple explanation to a process for which the prefix “multi”
can be applied in multi-mode. Very rarely was it organized a serious, even
desperate discussion re why the XXXX is this strange category of phenomena so
weak and difficultly reproducible, concluding that this situation is
INTOLERABLE and MUST BE CHANGED. By any means!

A last remark- one of the starting aims of Cold Fusion
was to be NUCLEAR. I am increasingly thinking this is an equivalent of the
cat’s color not of the cat’s mice hunting ability. (I am speaking about Deng
Xiaoping’s cat not Andrea Rossi’s). I hope LENR+ is Nuclear in a quite new,
harmless way.

Losing aims, due to replacement by means, or in any
other way is the best recipe for failure and/or disaster for anyone and for
everything.

If a field loses its aims, it loses its original
identity and can be resurrected only from outside. LENR+ will regenerate the
noble and useful Cold Fusion dream.
